Tampa Bay Buccaneers 13 New York Giants 17
Sunday 12 September 1999 at Raymond James Stadium
FOX COMMENTARY CREW Sam Rosen and Bill Maas
You can pin this one on Trent. The Giants had no offense at all,
yet scored twice on picks thrown by the Bucs' starting QB and
kicked a fieldgoal after a fumble. "It's a simple case of trying to
do too much. I was trying to make some things happen when I
probably should have thrown the ball away," Dilfer said.
